ironymaidenthe tree and wreath are in a pile of trees by the compost bin. dismantling was quick; we've decided the white lights on the balcony are season-neutral and staying because there are a lot of long nights still ahead of us.

it looks like with the changes in IFTTT that my rube goldberg DW link poster is dead, and i believe the instagram x-poster is dead as well. i did want to come up with some little coding projects to do, so i need to do some personal WSJF on easy link sharing vs mobile photo posts vs text from rocketbook.
since DW still doesn't have an API everything hinges on post by email, so i am going to have to learn more about how email works no matter what i tackle first. (i poked at this earlier in the week as part of the rocketbook experiment - i seem to be able to send a test email via mailx, which is then rejected by the recipient because it looks dodgy. hence the "learn more about email".) any links or book suggestions on email appreciated; i'm hoping to find the proper way to relay through gmail so that this doesn't turn into buying a domain.

i finally bleached my roots before refreshing my hair color (first time since the start of green hair back in April). this time i realized that the box bleach actually tells you the proper proportion for mixing the reagents in the allergy test instructions, so there's no reason to mix the entire box when you don't need it (the longest hair on my head might be chin length when pulled straight). i have plenty left for the next time, probably the time after, and might not go as long between refreshes. between that and getting the shortest parts of my hair cut down to #1 today (skin-baring but still slightly fuzzy...as my stylist says she's more scared than i am) i feel pleasantly punk rawk.
i think there's a chance that this will be the last haircut i have for a while, since the new strain is in BC and the US.

Date: 2021-01-04 03:21 pm (UTC)My memory is that the changes were too extensive, and that the DW API project has been languishing. (This is why there are no DW clients.) I did see someone else mentioning that that they needed an API key to use a backup service recently, so maybe there's more in place now than I thought. Will research more.
